This is a common question. When it is difficult to play notes that are in between two black keys, your hand will naturally move more towards the edge (away from the black notes). But I would also like to suggest making use of moving your wrists side to side (of course while keeping the correct hand position). This wrist movement allows your hand to be in a position that turns your fingers more to the side, helping your fingers to play those keys in between two black notes. To see a demonstration, refer to my tutorial "Essential Piano Practice Warm-up Exercise #3: Sequence on Fifths." At 1:53 - 2:03, I demonstrate this exact movement. It is also demonstrated in Essential Piano Practice Exercise #4 and #5. This movement will truly help you play notes in between two black keys. Best wishes with your piano playing! 🎵😊

Thank you 🎹! I really appreciate that 🙏🎵😊!

Greetings to you in Greenland!! Thank you so much and enjoy playing the piano 🎶!

You are so very welcome ! 🎵😊

Thanks for the suggestion. That would be good once this Essential Warm-up series is complete. If you want to go ahead and further develop hand to hand coordination, I suggest practicing all of these Essential Warm-up Exercises hands together. Enjoy! 🎹😊

When playing the piano, it is important to remember that we will not only move our hands left and right. In order to make progress with training the hand, we will also move the hand/fingers "into" the keys. So often, we only play keeping our hands over the white keys, but remember, it is important to also move your hands/fingers toward the fallboard. I call this "playing into the keys." This enables all of our fingers to have the ability to reach (and shift on) the black keys. 🎶😊

I'm very glad you find these exercises helpful! Enjoy your progress!🎹😊

I'm very glad this exercise has been helpful. And you are correct, using the third finger is definitely more of a challenge! 🎵🎹

Most pianists have had at least some challenges with memorization. I would like to encourage you to follow all of the memory tutorials (#1 - #4). Even though these memory practice methods can require a lot of patience and concentration, over time and with repetition, they should help. These exercises have benefited many students; best wishes on your piano journey! 🎵🎹🎼😊

You are welcome! 🎼😊

That is perfectly fine. Never force or over-extend your fingers; keep the movement/stretch gentle. It is always necessary to keep your hand relaxed; this will enable your fingers/thumb to extend further providing more results. Remember, the exercise is to train your hand for more movement and strength; it takes time and repetition. I would also like to recommend my tutorial "Beginning Piano Exercise - Preparation for Scales, Arpeggios, and More." Even if the "Preparation" exercise is easy for you, it will provide more ease for the arpeggio exercises. You are on the right track! 🎵

Yes, however the best way for you to learn to read music is with a "method book." There are online versions and hard copy versions of method books. My personal suggestion is a hard copy book. It will teach note reading and provide teaching pieces for you to practice. These books progress, adding more information and pieces for you to practice. As you learn to read music, you can simultaneously develop your finger technique with my lessons here. Best wishes with your piano practice!!

@@suzanneherman241thanks, any author name? Or any link if you wana share to buy that

@@desijugad5446 One method book series that is highly recommended is the "Adult Piano Adventures All-in-One Piano Course Book 1." There are several levels, and it includes theory. The composers are Faber and Faber. They have supplemental books, and they have method books for children too. You'll get a thorough education of note reading 🎹😊. Good luck!!

@@suzanneherman241 thanks dear

I think you should start the series “ how to read and play sheet music”

I'm very glad this lesson has been helpful! More exercises coming soon! 🎵🎹

I very much appreciate that! Thank you! 🙏🎶

You are welcome! 🎼😊

The Db major, Eb major, and Ab major arpeggios are all the same shape and therefore can have the same fingering. For instance, the Db major arpeggio would be 4th finger on Db, thumb on F, 2nd finger on Ab. A general guideline is to play the white note with the thumb when there two black notes in the arpeggio. For root position arpeggios with 3 black notes, the fingering generally would be 1, 2, 3. I hope that helps! 😊🎹

Thank you! I greatly appreciate that! 🎹

Thank you! 😊🎶

You are welcome...always trying to improve the teaching 🎵

It is extremely important to be comfortable using multiple fingerings when playing the major chords. In this series, Exercise #4 - #6 demonstrates the root position chords using fingers 1, 2, 4. Exercise #7 - #9 demonstrates the practice method using fingers 1, 2, 3. As the series progresses, there are multiple fingerings applied to the first inversion and second inversion major chords as well. Best wishes for your piano practice 🎹

Thank you so much 🎶
